Travel around the world with the swifts, a small, unassuming bird that goes on an amazing journey every year. Ocean to mountain, desert to suburban neighborhood, the swifts weather sunshine, rain, and sneaky predators, but the little creatures amazingly endure it all.
Balancing information with whimsy, this is a wonderful educational book. There's the main story, told in bigger text, which is great for more casual readers, and then the additional captions with more of the detailed facts. Some people just want the big picture, while others will delight in the flight speeds and distances, and there's plenty in this book to please both groups.
The full color illustrations are beautifully vibrant. For an entire book all about swifts, each page remains fresh and different, with a range of colors across all the places the swifts go.
Pick this up to learn a little, or a lot, about the super swifts.
